The irruption of information and communication technologies (Ict), a challenge in the management of digital competences of university professors in Ecuador

Abstract:

The study aims to evaluate the digital competencies of university teachers in Ecuador during the 2019-2020 academic year at the National University of Education (UNAE) during the 2019-2020 academic year in Ecuador. The research is based on a mixed approach and a descriptive-explicative field design, through a stratified non-probabilistic sample of 37 teachers. The guide of direct observation of the participants and the application of two questionnaires were used. The present research concludes that the majority of teachers use ICTs only for information and communication, there being availability of access to technology on the part of the institution, but a high deficiency in the research training of teachers.
